The fripp line on top of the belew 7/8 is basically
the same riff in alternating bars of 6 and 7,
but Keeping The Same 8th note value.
This produces the funky intervals you hear…
and you thought it was a delay!
(I know I did first time I heard it… 8-)).

The chording during fripps’ wacked out picking in the intro and
between verses seems to be a barred 9th chord, dropping the
unison on the G string to the major 7th, ie
–2—–2–2—-|
–2—–2–2—-|
–4—–3–4—-|
–4—–4–4—-|
–2—–2–2—-|
–2—–2–2—-|
with appropriate whammy bar antics for the first chord,
then up to a Dsus2 (5th & 7th frets) then again another 3rd.
Oh yeah, when the 13/8 and 7/8 fall back together, they play for
about 3 bars both in 7 then drop the bass note as noted above.
Some one is yet to figure out the “wacked out fripp part”.
However, it’s based on the following:
————————————————
————————————————
————————————————
—–5-7-5——-5-7-5——-5-7-5————–
-5-8——-8-5-8——-8-5-8——-8———— etc
————————————————
Which modulates up to the 7th fret, then 10th, then 11th.
The rhythm is strange, I can’t pin down if it’s sextuplets,
6 against 4, or what.
It seems like he adds some notes sometimes to make things fit in.
